This week on the podcast Rachael Johns and Sophie Green talk about points of view in novels: first, third - and the little-seen second (and Sophie cites Bright Lights, Big City by Jay McInerney as an example of this point of view). We also discuss use of past and present tense within these points of view, and whether the point of view (and tense) choose us or we choose them. 

So this is a 'craft' episode, and we do get feedback from listeners that you like us talking about craft, so here you go! If there's anything related to writing craft that you'd like us to cover on the pod, please drop us a line at [email protected]
